Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The first room I was in had a major issue with the door. It had clearly been broken into and glued back together. The door frame was bent and the door wouldn't lock or latch without a lot of effort and multiple attempts. I could see outside when the door did finally latch, and I could see underneath the door to the outside. Not a safe place for a solo woman to stay. Thd room also smelled of stale cigarette smoke. The second room I was placed in had issues with maintenence as well. The refrigerator wasn't plugged in and was filthy behind it and the dresser it was fit into. The floor tiles in the bathroom were wobbly and the grout was broken and tracked onto the carpet each time I walked out of the bathroom. The caulking in the shower had black mold throughout. I actually bought a mold and mildew cleaner and doused the caulking with it. The rest of the building is in disrepair. The carpets are stained and haven't been cleaned. I don't recommend this hotel.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very poor room condition; main lamp was extremely dim, and bedside lamps had no bulbs at all. The door into the adjoining room was broken and being held against the wall by a piece of furniture. Exterior doors to the property did not latch, so anyone from the public could walk into the motel hallways. Definitely the most sketch motel I have stayed in many years. I have always had a good experience with Expedia on making reservations, but Did not appreciate Expedia’s pricing algorithm; it sold me a nonrefundable high price as the “last one available, then AFTER booking Expedia came back with a much lower price for the exact same room. Just a bad Expedia experience all around.

It is a dated hotel. And it is north of Tucson in the town of Catalina, AZ. So if you want to be closer to downtown Tucson, this may not be the place to stay. That being said, the staff and GM made the stay comfortable and resolved any issues. They really cared to make the stay nice. Plus, Catalina State Park is a few miles away along with horseback riding ranches and Oro Valley Marketplace. So it is a good place to stay if those are your intentions.

I stayed at this hotel for five nights. I placed the “Please clean the room” sign on my door twice, but no one came to service the room. I informed the front desk, and housekeeping did come to change the towels, but the bed was not made and the room was not properly cleaned. Overall, it was disappointing.

This hotel was horrific, damaged doors, one room I looked at it smelled nasty, another room I tried the door was not LOCKING!!! I felt very unsafe,!!!!! The last room, I tried the bathroom had mold in the corner & I have to cover it with a towel!!! By then I was very exhausted and decided to stay for at least one night due to it being 10 o’clock at night !!!! I do not recommend this place. It’s just awful and unsafe.
